The concepts of reversible, right duo, and Armendariz rings are known to play important roles in ring theory and they are independent of one another. In this note we focus on a concept that can unify them, calling it a right Armendarizlike ring in the process. We first find a simple way to construct a right Armendarizlike ring but not Armendariz (reversible, or right duo). We show the difference between right Armendarizlike rings and strongly right McCoy rings by examining the structure of right annihilators. For a regular ring R, it is proved that R is right Armendarizlike if and only if R is strongly right McCoy if and only if R is Abelian (entailing that right Armendarizlike, Armendariz, reversible, right duo, and IFP properties are equivalent for regular rings). It is shown that a ring R is right Armendarizlike, if and only if so is the polynomial ring over R, if and only if so is the classical right quotient ring (if any). In the process necessary (counter)examples are found or constructed.

In [12], McCoy proved that if R is a commutative ring, then whenever g(x) is a zero-divisor in R[x], there exists a nonzero c $\in$ R such that cg(x) = 0. In this paper, first we extend this result to monoid rings. Then for a monoid M, we give some examples of M-quasi-Armendariz rings which are a generalization of quasi-Armendariz rings. Every reduced ring is M-quasi-Armendariz for any unique product monoid M and any strictly totally ordered monoid $(M,\;{\leq})$. Also $T_4(R)$ is M-quasi-Armendariz when R is reduced and M-Armendariz.

We introduce weak Armendariz ideals which are a generalization of ideals have the weakly insertion of factors property (or simply weakly IFP) and investigate their properties. Moreover, we prove that, if I is a weak Armendariz ideal of R, then I[x] is a weak Armendariz ideal of R[x]. As a consequence, we show that, R is weak Armendariz if and only if R[x] is a weak Armendariz ring. Also we obtain a generalization of [8] and [9].

We study the structure of the set of nilpotent elements in various kinds of ring and introduce the concept of NR ring as a generalization of Armendariz rings and NI rings. We determine the precise relationships between NR rings and related ring-theoretic conditions. The Kothe's conjecture is true for the class of NR rings. We examined whether several kinds of extensions preserve the NR condition. The classical right quotient ring of an NR ring is also studied under some conditions on the subset of nilpotent elements.

In this note we study the structures of power-serieswise Armendariz rings and IFP rings when they are skewed by ring endomor-phisms (or automorphisms). We call such rings skew power-serieswise Armendariz rings and skew IFP rings, respectively. We also investigate relationships among them and construct necessary examples in the process. The results argued in this note can be extended to the ordinary ring theoretic properties of power-serieswise Armendariz rings, IFP rings, and near-related rings.

For an endomorphism ${\alpha}$ of a ring R, the endomorphism ${\alpha}$ is called semicommutative if ab=0 implies $aR{\alpha}(b)$=0 for a ${\in}$ R. A ring R is called ${\alpha}$-semicommutative if there exists a semicommutative endomorphism ${\alpha}$ of R. In this paper, various results of semicommutative rings are extended to ${\alpha}$-semicommutative rings. In addition, we introduce the notion of an ${\alpha}$-skew power series Armendariz ring which is an extension of Armendariz property in a ring R by considering the polynomials in the skew power series ring $R[[x;\;{\alpha}]]$. We show that a number of interesting properties of a ring R transfer to its the skew power series ring $R[[x;\;{\alpha}]]$ and vice-versa such as the Baer property and the p.p.-property, when R is ${\alpha}$-skew power series Armendariz. Several known results relating to ${\alpha}$-rigid rings can be obtained as corollaries of our results.

We say a module $M_R$ a semicommutative module if for any $m{\in}M$ and any $a{\in}R$, $ma=0$ implies $mRa=0$. This paper gives various properties of reduced, Armendariz, Baer, Quasi-Baer, p.p. and p.q.-Baer rings to extend to modules. In addition we also prove, for a p.p.-ring R, R is semicommutative iff R is Armendariz. Let R be an abelian ring and $M_R$ be a p.p.-module, then $M_R$ is a semicommutative module iff $M_R$ is an Armendariz module. For any ring R, R is semicommutative iff A(R, ${\alpha}$) is semicommutative. Let R be a reduced ring, it is shown that for number $n{\geq}4$ and $k=[n=2]$, $T^k_n(R)$ is semicommutative ring but $T^{k-1}_n(R)$ is not.

We continue the study of power-Armendariz rings over IFP rings, introducing $k$-power Armendariz rings as a generalization of power-Armendariz rings. Han et al. showed that IFP rings are 1-power Armendariz. We prove that IFP rings are 2-power Armendariz. We moreover study a relationship between IFP rings and $k$-power Armendariz rings under a condition related to nilpotency of coefficients.

P. M. Cohn called a ring R reversible if whenever ab = 0, then ba = 0 for $a,b{\in}R$. In this paper, we study an extension of a reversible ring with its endomorphism. An endomorphism ${\alpha}$ of a ring R is called strong right (resp., left) reversible if whenever $a{\alpha}(b)=0$ (resp., ${\alpha}(a)b=0$) for $a,b{\in}R$, ba = 0. A ring R is called strong right (resp., left) ${\alpha}$-reversible if there exists a strong right (resp., left) reversible endomorphism ${\alpha}$ of R, and the ring R is called strong ${\alpha}$-reversible if R is both strong left and right ${\alpha}$-reversible. We investigate characterizations of strong ${\alpha}$-reversible rings and their related properties including extensions. In particular, we show that every semiprime and strong ${\alpha}$-reversible ring is ${\alpha}$-rigid and that for an ${\alpha}$-skew Armendariz ring R, the ring R is reversible and strong ${\alpha}$-reversible if and only if the skew polynomial ring $R[x;{\alpha}]$ of R is reversible.

An endomorphism ${\alpha}$ of a ring R is called right(left) symmetric if whenever abc=0 for a, b, c ${\in}$ R, $ac{\alpha}(b)=0({\alpha}(b)ac=0)$. A ring R is called right(left) ${\alpha}-symmetric$ if there exists a right(left) symmetric endomorphism ${\alpha}$ of R. The notion of an ${\alpha}-symmetric$ ring is a generalization of ${\alpha}-rigid$ rings as well as an extension of symmetric rings. We study characterizations of ${\alpha}-symmetric$ rings and their related properties including extensions. The relationship between ${\alpha}-symmetric$ rings and(extended) Armendariz rings is also investigated, consequently several known results relating to ${\alpha}-rigid$ and symmetric rings can be obtained as corollaries of our results.
